No dude. Starting a thread with Superman vs. Thor with a twist: Superman can't use Superspeed is PIS and a violation of the forum rules: It is assumed that each contestant will fight to his/her best ability, but still within the character's personality, unless specified otherwise. That means they will use any powers at their disposal. For example, even though The Flash doesn't clock each of his own opponents in the first picosecond in his own comic, it is assumed that is a viable tactic on this board since it is a proven fact that he possesses that level of speed.
It is also assumed that the characters fight at their optimum levels of ability - not explicitly weakened or unusually powered up for those who have variable power levels.
If you have to take one of Supes tools out of his toolbox in order for Thor to win, well that's just sad and pathetic.

So it's not possible for the Man of Steel to fight and not kill anyone? He must kill? A superhero with as much experience as he has is entirely capable of fighting, pulling his punches/hammer blows and incapacitating his opponents without killing them. No need to be a mindless berserker killing machine is there?
I saw the scans up above. Looked like a lot of bodies lying around. Diana is a warrior born, who believes killing in combat is honourable. You think she was pulling her punches all that time, right beside Superman? Did Superman tell her she can't kill, just like him?
Bullcrap.
Oh, and Diana has picked up mjolnir all on her own. Didn't need it to be tossed to her like how Superman caught it (then couldn't lift it later.)

Yep, she lifted it twice, that's one of the few things in that crossover that I agreed with.

I agree with Diana being able to lift the hammer - lesser beings have to be honest.
I've always thought of Martian Manhunter as having a good chance of lifting the hammer as well - am I nuts for thinking that?

I just didn't restrict Superman, I stated that both characters can't move at super speeds. Meaning that Thor can't move at the warp speeds Marvel has him listed as.
